Summary


The amendment eliminates definitions of the following terms because they are defined elsewhere in statute or rule, are no longer in use, or do not require definition: "aggregate excess insurance"; "contact"; "department"; "emergency medical services provider"; "emergency medical services (EMS) agency"; "employee leasing company"; "global fee case"; "medical panel"; "medical practitioner"; "receiving facility"; "reserve"; "significant exposure"; "source patient"; and "specific excess insurance". Definitions are added for the following terms: "benefit"; "claimant"; "injury"; and "payor". The definition of "first aid", also added to the rule, is the same definition of the term that was previously found in Section R612-100-3, and also in Subsection R612-200-1(A). Other definitions were clarified to correspond with their usage throughout the Industrial Accidents Division's rules.
